Special treats arrive in Morristown for the holidays
For the 16th year in a row, the Frelinghuysen Arboretum in Morristown is hosting the holiday Gingerbread Wonderland.
Each gingerbread creation is made by individual children, children with special needs and families throughout Morris County. There are more than 250 creations, including aquariums, Christmas trees and Santa?s workshop.
Some of the gingerbread displays can take up to 80 hours to create. The most important rule is that everything on display must be edible.
Awards for the best gingerbread creation will be handed out Saturday. The exhibit ends on Sunday.
For an extended interview about the Gingerbread Wonderland, go to channel 612 on your iO digital cable box and select iO Extra.
